Others may try, but IMO, Quinn is THE definitive online fan source of the Dune Universe. Big fan. Your nerdism inspires me.
I would be interested to hear your top 10 graphic novels ......maybe do some reviews as well....love the channel btw
Maybe in the 2nd or 3rd book, the art will be more surreal as Paul explores more of his Other Memory.
That’s a really interesting point! I hope so
It is.
When part 2,3 are coming out 🤔
They are both stunning. The prophet just came out and I'm beyond impressed with the work they did on this. It was a total of 4 years in between each release, they really took their time with it and the level of detail and professionalism shows. It's fantastic
I got the graphic novel. I preordered it, got it after many months of being pushed back, but when I got it, I was very happy with it.
How long have you waited? I'm still waiting for mine.
@@IreneiosOP got it about 2 weeks ago.
I pre-ordered mine and I am still waiting for it.
I like dream-like art too. Book illustrators of the golden age like Arthur Rackham, and Edmund Dulac were superb. Check their illustrations out sometime.
Love the t-shirt! Everything you said is exactly what I think.
100%
I too, though appreciating the points favour the direct panel layouts and clean art.
It reminded me of the decision Moore and Gibons took on Watchmen - to keep illustration as a servant of story, rather than 'art' in and of itself (though it did end up that way anyway).
It might almost be nice to have each books illustrated by a different person (I liked the way things like Nemesis and Judge Dredd swapped in and out of different hands from story to story as a kiddo, for example).
Your shirt looks like it has the auryn symbol from The Neverending Story. Nice.
Damn. That's literally AURYN but it's Sandworms
glad im not the only one that thought that XD. as a kid, i made my own out of Fimo clay...i still have it someplace, but its sticky (top tip. do NOT use nail polish as varnish on projects)
@@overlookers I actually didn't notice that until you pointed it out. That's pretty awesome.
I just got this too. Its my first exposure to dune. I just watched the older movie and really liked it . Found your channel through your explanation :)
Jodorowsky should've done a Dune inspired short film ,that would've been awesome and attainable. His movies are intense gets lost in the weeds ..amongst the mushrooms and dmt .
What I loved most about this book was the way it brought Duke Leto to life for me for the first time, and made his and Paul’s relationship real as well.
For sure going to buy this 1. I think Quinn should be getting some kind of cut because he is the entertainment plug!! So many good recommendations you have great taste Quinn!!
Also, If you like weird art and out there kind of sci-fi check out "Black Science."
It just finished last year I think.
I love this man, and I love his passion for DUNE.
I'm 100 percent in for everything DUNE. I rewatched DUNE, David Lynch, 1984, and It was, as I remembered appealing to me.
I saw an alternate cut of the film, but if I ever would have been bothered by the pacing, this cut certainly smoothed that over. That's not the point though. I believe. That is the point I am a believer.
If you read all of that, you are definitely a DUNE fan.
Hey man, could you finally cover Dune: Chapterhouse in your 'Ultimate Guide' series? It would've been great, cheers!
Sorry, have to brag,Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson are two of our very good friends. My SO was Kevin's transcriptionist (he 'writes' as he hikes.) and therefore all the Anderson parts of the "Herbert/Anderson" House books were typed in out kitchen. SO was the first set of eyes to see them in print. They introduced SO once at a panel and had them stand. They got a massive ovation and I grinned like the Cheshire cat. They are great people. And nearly ALL off it came from five unknown computer discs Frank had placed in a safety deposit box, until the back called a said, "What do you want us to do with this stuff in the safety deposit box?" It was the notes and even wholly realized scene from the NEXT set of "Dune" novels he'd had in the works. They had no idea they existed, and it included the entire Atriede/Harkonnen (It's 'HARK-eh-nun' btw, the movie got it right) family tree. And thus, new 'Dune' books.
I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts and I’m interested to know more about your graphic novel recommendations. Keep up the good work!
I got this book for Christmas it is truly amazing and captures the feeling of the book 👍🏻
Im getting into dune i saw it as a child and loved it and now part 2 is coming....i will read the graphic books and reg books and of course watch all your vids to help me understand this wild universe....
Now this is a good review. Just looked at the top mention from youtube for this book and the guy hadn't even read it. Thanks for your work. Obviously got a bit of passion for what you do. Thanks.
I preordered this and enjoyed reading it as well.
Wow great points on the art! I never thought about that!
Looks good enough but certainly not pushing the limits with graphic novel innovations of the last ten years or so. Still certainly looks like a great way to experience Dune again. I like the look of Low too, so this was an awesome vid, two for one! 💜
I need to get my head out of the gutter, I thought that cutting board was a paddle at first
Quinn, thank you so much for your channel. It’s great to see that I’m not the only one with a colossal interest in the “Dune” series of books by Frank Herbert! I’ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve read the series along with many of the other books that weren’t written by FH but covered more of the details.
However I always leave the hard book editions at home and take the main book plus one other when when going on exercise, or more of the set when on long operations (the multi month type in other countries).
The books from the main books have been a source of relaxation throughout my 28-year military career, such that most of my book collection of the series are now on their 10th, or more, replacements.
It’s mainly due to the numerous reading by all the guys in my company - it’s important for the OIC to help with his mens morale, and these books appeared to be enjoyed by everyone (a bit suspect as most Bootnecks aren’t shy about about sharing their feelings, even with the OIC, but they always seemed keen for the next book of the series!).
In this respect I found that the chaps in my company enjoyed reading them and looked forward to reading the next book in the series. It’s not the fault of the publication company, because there are very few man made items that are Bootneck Proof! I imagine that it’s the same with our brothers across the pond in the USMC?!
I don't know if you read the Dune:House Atredies graphic novels.... DO IT!!!!! They were sooooo good and gave some great background history on Leto, Duncan Idaho, Pedot Kynes, the Harkonen and Atriedies feud and Jessica! I would love to see your review!
Hey quinn, will you be reviewing Frank Herbert's other books, the jesus incident and the lazarus effect which were set on a waterworld
Cheers, I was thinking of getting this because I love Alex Jay Brady, and I think the straightforward style of the way it was adapted doesn't do her work any favours.
Thank you for putting into words what I was not able to after reading it. Now I know what was off about it.
Thanks Quinn. I'll likely pick these up but... Wow I'll have to go find that Low graphic novel. The premise sounds like a lot of fun and the brief overview of the artwork looks very cool. Perhaps you could do a larger segment about that story sometime?
I hope that you have a safe, healthy, and happy new year, Quinn! Thanks for sharing all of your great content with us.🙂
I would like to see someone try and take the voices from the Dune audiobook and match it with graphic novel.
I have 3 volumes of Low. The art is indeed amazing!
ALEX JAY BRADY POGGGGGGGGGGGGGGERSS
agreed on the visual direction not being brave enough. great vid quinn!
Mœbius would have been perfect for this graphic novel. Just look at the incal. amazing 🤩
Aw, dude, I needed this video!!!! It inspired me so much! Probably will buy next time 😃 thx you a lot!!
Hi. I'm entering now on the Dune universe and your vídeos about the lore of Dune are very compeling.
You should make a video about the figurines, your take on the design and style of the weapons a suits.
It would be cool.
I do agree about Low. Another graphically stunning novel is The Dark Tower series.
Maybe they should have done the whole comic in the same style as the cover?!
If P Craig Russel had done the art....it would have been spectacular! I love the star light effect in your abode, adds to the Dune mysticism.
Ive been interested in the Dune comic, but you're right about the drawing style. It's whats turning me off and keeping me from buying it. A moebius style of drawing would have been perfect.
PLEASE invite Kevin j Anderson on your channel. Preston Jacobs recently had him on his show discussing this book and Dune novels
I just remembered. Before the pandemic, Quinn did say that he would interview Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson after the movie came out. But now, with the delay and pandemic...
You should definitely review the Dune board games, the chaps at Shut up and Sit Down could help you out.
Apologies, I'm going to post this on some of your other vids as I would love to get a Dune oriented recommendation.
Thanks for the review. Whew! I'm glad they leaned toward accuracy.
If you haven’t already, you should review the Folio Society edition of Dune. It’s beautiful!
Just picked up. I purchased from Barnes and Noble because they sold for less than cover. I'll buy extra comics from my LCS tomorrow as penance.
I would recommend reading 'The Metabarons', it's fenomenal.
Instantly subscribed, this dude is good vibes
Jim Lee's art in the Dark Tower graphic novels was dark and phenomenal.
Really appreciate the review, going to check out the GN now!
Huge fan of your channel. Keep up the good work!
I also received the book for christmas...still not sure how I feel about it..I thought a lot of the words used were very juvenile and could of used more theatrical words as the novel did..maybe it was to make it easier to read for each scene/picture..and if a younger audience will read the book to create more fans...I dont know..Im halfway through it
François Baranger should do a Dune graphic novel - that would be amazing!
I still have the old Bill Sienkiewicz version. At least 3 copies of each issue. And a very beat up Marvel Super Special version. Sienkiewicz did the cover to this book, too.
La mejor opción para que los que quieran cómics únicos o no tengan tiempo de leer y quieren imágenes para entender mejor que es, incluso imaginan los movimientos físicos en el tiempo y espacio, así como acción para luego reflexionar sobre la trama y diálogos después, así puedan al menos entender lo que lee la gente que les gusta leer sin dibujos, quisiera que también hubiera este tipo de productos en la fundación de Isaac assimov, cómic novela gráfica para los que no entienden bien sin ejemplos e imágenes, buen video y recomendacion, lo compraría si pudiera, gracias por tu video.
Hey quinn , in regardless of star wars, you should watch the clone wars , the show makes the prequels make sense and it's so good.
It is because the visuals in lynch’s are pretty beautiful tbh
Fear is the mindkiller...
The graphic novel is the first dune anything I have read and it is great. I am loving it and it makes me want to read the book.
We need an "ultimate guide to Duncan Idaho" vid. His character throughout each book. That would be interesting. I hope you see this. Take care man...
I love your videos, you explain things so much better than I ever could......that being said, what is going on with your Dune:Chapterhouse video?? If something went sideways I got it, but an update would be nice!!
I'll have to try and find this. I love Dune... novel, the Lynch Film, the SciFi Channel miniseries...I am looking forward to the new movie (part one)...I hope it hits blu-ray as I do not have an HBO MAX subscription.
One of the things I loved about Lynch's adaptation was how anti-tech it looked....like he took the First Commandment in the OC Bible to heart for the movie's visual style, "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind. "
How does the tech come across in the graphic novel, Quinn?
The Dune Graphic Novel maybe more dialogue driven which gives the artwork a newspaper comic strip vibe. . on the other hand the artwork for Dune House Atreides is far more eye catching as the plot is more action driven.
Wow, this is such a cool idea though. I agree from what I can see I wish the art was a bit more mystical.. less traditional western style.. i just got into the books this year though. Would love to see more renditions with alternative art styles emerge in the future!!! So much of the fan artwork is Gorgeous!!!!
I totally agree on the art from what I can see. From what I can tell, it looks like they rely heavily on the dialogue for the story-telling rather than the art, which I think takes away from the appeal of telling the story through a visual medium. So much of Dune is the politics of the various factions that I feel like it would be a challenge to avoid pages with lots of lengthy word bubbles, to be fair.
Awesome :) thanks for the quick review. Still waiting for mine to arrive :(
Do an interview with the creator of the Dune graphic novel
I really agree with you when you compare the art on Low and the art on Dune. The Dune stuff just looks so flat compared. Dune as a story has so many levels and such a range of themes. The art doesn't seem to come up to the same standard. Still looks exciting though!
ITA I thought the inside would look like the cover painting in a dreamscape type layout. I've read Batman & other comics with more visually artistic looks but this is SO BOXY like a Saturday Sunday newspaper comic that gave no emotion to the scenes or dialogue. Keeping just the 1st one for memorabilia not ordering anymore.
You remind me so much of ComicBookGirl19 from a few years ago. If you haven’t, watch her Dune series & Jodorowski special.
Man, how did he get those Dune figures already? My orders got pushed back (I suspect because of the movie’s later release date).
As someone who read the Dune series decades ago I remember that Frank Herbert is very clear about how the worms appearance and John Schoenherr illustrations make it clear that adaptation or interpretation is required. "Fans" destroy the things they claim to love.
Like the new intro
I love the first book so a graphic novel is an easy sell I will definitely look out for it
I think what your saying is the art should be more dynamic and perhaps expressive
You should read the Elric graphic novels! 😀
You have excellent taste sir!
My favourite graphic novels are ledroit and mosdi's Xoco and mack's Kabuki, imalso enjoyed Hewletts Tank girl and o Barrs the crow, to name classics.
I thinkmi will get this new adaption of dune as both a graphic obel and as a dune fan... butni am also looking forward for gn adaptions of the prequel/sequels... i don't enjoy kja and bh as authors very much, bit i believe some of their fanfic could work quite well in graphic nivel form if done properly...
I want that shirt in black!
Art is subjective, I enjoy your takes as always...
They should've released the graphic novel first before the monthly comic book adaption of Dune: House Atriedes so that more people would know whats going on
A good review. Thankyou!
i totally agree realism is boring. i really love Dave McKean work because he all ways adds the right level of abstraction. so that the art has something to say
Great Review 👍 Thanks!
I read part of the graphic novel in aibrary and couldn't read anymore because of the aesthetician. It's wayyy to boring, as you said it's not risqué. Now the graphic novel the metabarons has a realistic look but isn't clean, though very beautiful. I think that dame artwork would have been perfect for the graphic novel. Not this clean, non gritty look, it doesn't make me excited to jump back in and inspect it visually.
Maybe read some gfx novels of Don Lawrence like Storm or Trigië?
You make such great vehicles!!
Thanks for sharing. I couldn't ever get into those other than ElfQuest. Looks like it'll stay that way. 😂
It looks so good
ooooo bizden reis
I’ve never heard of Low, sounds interesting
Did you check the Marvel Comics Super Special adaptation of David Lynch’s Dune written by Ralph Macchio (no, not THAT Ralph Macchio) and illustrated by Bill Sienkiewicz?
The drastic contrast between the just panels used in both graphic novels alone is crazy, and LOW is not the only one who gets it, the best graphic novels understand there's no point in making a great book into something visual if you're going to be boring with the visuals. Otherwise what is really the point? Just stick to the book. This Dune graphic novel just has grids and grids of rectangles after rectangles, and worse yet is that the "camera" is always at the most boring angle possible. That's a big one for me, when the artists don't give you creative and dynamic angles. As you said, not very cinematic
Did you see that there is an official movie version comic as well? I found that very strange that we have 2 comic adaptations right now.
I can tell your passion for Dune is waning. You were definitely thinking about Star Wars the whole time.
I just saw the movie. I read a lot of manga. This will comic book I'm gonna a read
I’ll have to give it a look
I like your channel, since I am Dune and SF fan. But one advice, if you wanna show some graphics like those comic books, please make photos and add them during editing. Showing them live against light glares looks really terrible and really tells nothing about the images.
Sold!
It would en awesome if they Adapt The other books too.
Where the hell did you get a cutting board with a map of Arrakis, and why does such a thing exist?
I think I'm going to check that Low out.
Low is pretty great
